Mixed Blessing System

"Uh?" Elke was surprised by Lothur's speech, quickly dropping her worried expression to smile in satisfaction.

"That's great, Lothur! I'm happy for you!" She got on her knees in front of him and tightly hugged him.

Meanwhile, Lothur was still thinking about his attributes, trying to understand the situation.

'My Intelligence has increased... I didn't expect that!'

'Maybe that's because the talent is related to the senses of body and soul?' He wondered as he hugged back the beauty in front of him. 'That must be the case...'

'But that increase in Intelligence and Perception... Why did they both stop at the same point and not at different values?'

Lothur naturally paid attention to every improvement he got. So, he knew that different attributes were boosted in different dimensions.

In that case, this pill taking these two attributes to the same value seemed rather strange to him.

'Is that the limit of the 1st stage?' Such a thought flashed through his mind. 'The pill supposedly has better effects on people at the peak of the 1st stage. So, it took those two characteristics of mine to that point?'

'Sigh!'

'I'll find that out when I return to Peters City and meet some people at the peak of the 1st stage. Anyway, I got a great breakthrough in my mental attributes and even an improvement in my Constitution!'

Since the pill could improve the physical senses of the one who consumed it, this naturally affects the quality of one's body.

Obviously, the focus of the medicinal effect of the pill was the attribute most related to the senses, Perception. But it was impossible to change some attributes without affecting others.

The body and soul of cultivators needed a certain balance, or they would hardly function.

Body and soul were an interconnected whole, and when one part advanced too far, the other could not lag too far behind, or problems could appear!

But since Mortal Warriors did not have attributes high enough to generate big problems in a situation like Lothur's, this guy's advancement regarding Constitution had not been that significant.

Anyway, after he thought about those things while being embraced by Elke, Lothur and she separated their bodies, with this man curious to test his new characteristics.

"Elke, can you step back a bit? I want to test my techniques so we can see if there is any difference." He smiled at her and planned what to do without having to cause too much mess in that room.

"Hmmm." She nodded to him, climbing into the large double bed in anticipation of what he was about to do.

Cross Walk!

Lothur first activated his movement technique, moving back and forth from one side of that room to the other.

As he did so, he immediately frowned, feeling ashamed that he was doing it in such a lurid manner.

'What? Have I always moved this way?' He paid attention to his clumsy movements, which frankly were not in the least bit efficient.

Feeling the humiliation of running like that, he immediately focused on correcting his mistakes.

As he made his moves, going from one side of that room to the other, Elke watched as he seemed to get faster.

'Wow!'

'Is he advancing in his movement technique?' She felt excited to see how her lover's movements were evolving.

After doing this for only 10 minutes, Lothur saw the system warning in front of him.

[+0.1 in all physical attributes.]

[+0.1 in AGI.]

[+0.1 in WIL.]

[+0.2 in CON.]

'What?' He stopped his movements when he saw this, finding it great how the improvements from technique training had come so easily.

'I have increased my Perception and corrected my mistakes. So now I can train more efficiently and raise my gains again?' He thought about this theory, vibrating with satisfaction, ready to put it into check!

So, he soon began training his Steel Body. For this, he asked Elke to hit his body with an unsharpened part of his ax, something necessary for him to boost his defenses.

Elke was not strong enough to hurt him, but even a weak person could harm someone stronger if that individual used a suitable weapon.

Then, the silver-haired young man realized his mistakes when using that defensive technique. With that, he slowly tried to correct each of those problems, making his Steel Body function more efficiently.

[+0.1 in all physical attributes.]

[+0.1 in WIL.]

[+0.2 in CON.]

Due to Elke's weakness in this training, it had taken Lothur 50 minutes to see the system announcement.

However, when it appeared to him, he felt his whole body tremble and asked Elke to stop.

"What? Did I hurt you?" She asked in concern.

"No, I'm advancing!" He rushed to the bathroom, afraid of dirtying the place he and Elke would soon be spending the night...

She looked at him with a twinkle in her eyes, understanding what he was about to go through because of this information. "I will wait for you here..."

And with that, after leaving each of his garments on the way to the bathroom, Lothur stepped into the tub and lay down, feeling the impurities leaving his body.

"Damn!"

'I feel like throwing up...' He felt sick as black crystals, shrouded in a goo of the same color, left his body through various parts, with much of it coming from his navel.

...

15 minutes later...

Finally, Lothur's body stopped expelling impurities, and his status appeared again in his vision.

[Name: Lothur Ritter]

[Physique: what doesn't kill you makes you stronger]

[Bloodline: ****]

[Cultivation: level 5]

[STR: 9.7] [CON: 14.6] [DEX: 9.1] [AGI: 10.9]

[INT: 52.9] [PER: 52.9] [WIL: 49.2]

'I have finally reached the 5th Transformation!' He celebrated upon seeing this as an expression of accomplishment formed on his face.

'My average physical attribute score is just over 11... Hmmm, that must be the limit from level 4 to 5!'

'Considering that I needed 4 points on the average of my physical attributes to get to level 3 and 7 to level 4, my next breakthrough will come when I reach 16!' He assumed that this was the difference between the 1st stage cultivation levels.

Then, while still feeling very happy, he did his best to clean the bathtub he was in, opening the window of that place and throwing various cleaning products into it.

He then took a bath for about 20 minutes, and after he finished, he stood naked in front of the mirror.

'Wow!'

'At this rate, it will come the time when no woman will resist me...' He laughed, seeing how his appearance seemed more refined.

His muscles looked more inflated and defined, to the point that he could now see their fibers when doing some poses. Otherwise, his skin and hair suddenly seemed to have recovered from a period of dehydration, smoother and subtly shining.

Lothur looked at himself again, noticing his white teeth, and then left that place to make a girl happy...

"Elke, what did you think?" He asked her as he stopped in front of the bathroom door.

"Uh?" Elke suddenly stood up from the bed and looked in Lothur's direction.

"What? You... Can you still get any more handsome?" Her mouth almost dropped to the floor as she reached up to touch him.

"Wow!"

"Lothur, your skin feels so soft now! And your smell... It's better than ever!" She hugged him, already feeling her body temperature rising due to the feeling of being with this healthy man.

Lothur then winked at her. "Do you want to try it?"

"I thought you were never going to suggest it!" She laughed before kissing him tenderly.

"Mmmmm~"

...

Five hours later...

"Hah... Hah... You're a beast, Lothur! Hah..." Elke lay down next to her lover, feeling every millimeter of her body drenched in sweat while breathing hard.

"How did you manage to stay like this for so long?" She swallowed her saliva and looked at the man as sweaty as she was beside her.

Hearing this, Lothur smiled, also in awe of his new performance. "I guess that's the benefit of advancement... The body gets full of energy, and naturally, certain reactions are longer lasting."

"And how they are!" She looked at a particular part of him. "Unfortunately, we can't go on... I'm too tired... I'm sorry."

"Elke, don't worry. You've been perfect the last few hours." He turned to her and played with her damp, red hair.

"I wish I was stronger..." She lamented as she felt a strange sensation in her being.

Hearing this, Lothur felt curious and looked at her status.

[Name: Elke Becker]

[Cultivation: level 2 -> 3]

[STR: 1.5] [CON: 3.4 -> 4] [DEX: 2.9] [AGI: 3.1]

'What's that?'

'She's about to advance... No'

"Elke, I think you're moving up a level..." He was commenting on this strange thing he saw for the first time, but Elke had already figured it out.

She tried to run towards the bathroom but felt her legs were not in the ideal state for this...

"Lothur..." He caught her before she fell, quickly making his way toward the bathroom as black sweat began to break out from her navel.

"I'm sorry." Elke blushed and used one of her hands to squeeze Lothur's nose, embarrassed that such a situation was happening to her.
